The person hiding in the bushes couldn't believe it, he had actually appeared!
Everyone saw correctly, that man was definitely King Wanfa. Everyone had thought King Wanfa had gone to Polar Ice Land to look for the Ghost King who was cultivating there, but a few days ago, the Ghost King had unexpectedly returned from his retreat. Only then did people realize King Wanfa's journey to the Polar Ice Land wasn't to find the Ghost King, but for some other purpose.
Since King Wanfa had been in the Polar Ice Land for as long as a month, most people thought he had died there, his bones lost to the ice. Especially more than twenty days prior, on that night, a mysterious bird had flown into the Polar Ice Land, its mocking and scornful cries awakening an ancient beast that had been slumbering there for ages. The roars that never ceased, the glaciers collapsing, and the earth-shaking tumult of that scene were still vivid in their minds.
